Chapter 94
At Mellow Cafe.
John requested to be seated in the luxurious private room, and he ordered the best coffee they had. The environment was pleasant to be in.
“Ms. Tussaud, try the coffee and see if you like it.”
Nicole paid no heed to minor details like these. After taking a small sip of the coffee, she placed the cup back on the table. “Mr. Lin, let’s dive straight into the topic.”
Nicole was a straightforward woman, and that was a trait John appreciated. In comparison with women who schemed in the shadows, Nicole was better suited for Evan.
He smiled. “Ms. Tussaud, I was hoping to help you familiarize yourself with Mr. Seet. As long as you return to the company, I can tell you everything you want to know until you win his heart. You can ask about his preferences and his schedule.”
Nicole froze. What does he mean?
Evan’s secretary is trying to help me win over Evan?
She wanted to ask if his boss knew what his subordinate was trying to do.
What do you get from doing this?
John had long thought of the questions that were swirling in her head. Without needing her to ask, he explained, “Ms. Tussaud, I’m only following orders. Mrs. Seet likes you very much.”
I see. So it’s Mrs. Seet’s idea.
His words were the perfect reply to Nicole’s unspoken questions.
However, she did not know why she should court Evan.
Whenever she thought about the way Evan made her life difficult, she felt disgusted by him.
After a brief pause, Nicole scoffed as she looked at John. “Mr. Lin, it seems that helping me isn’t the only reason you want me back. I’m sure the company hasn’t found a translator who knows A Nation’s language. Am I right?”
Truth be told, we had found one. However, Mrs. Seet had come up with a plan to make Evan dismiss the translator from the company.
John fell silent, keeping the words in his heart. Instead, he replied, “Yes.” That way, Nicole would feel that the company truly needed her.
Upon hearing his answer, a surge of glee flowed into Nicole’s heart. They actually didn’t manage to find a suitable person for the job?
My prayers must have been heard. God is helping me fulfill my wish.
It seems like God is on my side.
It serves that bastard Evan well to not find anyone for the role.
Should I go back and get him back for what he’s done?
It’s a splendid opportunity for revenge, after all.
“Ms. Tussaud, you can tell us your terms. Even if they’re against Mr. Seet, we’ll agree to it as long as you return to the company.”
John had lowered his voice to sound subservient.
“Let me think about it.”
Unlike the outright rejection earlier, Nicole was now giving his words a thought.
John saw a trace of hope from her expression, and he heaved a sigh of relief in his heart.
As long as Nicole returned, he would have successfully carried out Sophia’s request. He would also be able to tell Evan he found a translator for their collaboration with A Nation.
The future events—whether it would be love or hate between Nicole and Evan—had nothing to do with John.
The next day. Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g
Nicole woke up early and prepared breakfast for the three children. While they were eating, she put on sophisticated makeup and the black office attire Sophia had given to her earlier.
Her tied-up hair matched perfectly with the set of clothes she was wearing.
Her lips curled into a confident smile as she looked at herself in the mirror. She knew she looked elegant and professional.
Unlike the previous time, this time, Nicole was returning with confidence.
There were three reasons for her confidence.
Firstly, the company needed her.
Secondly, John had called her last night, and she told him her terms, which he had agreed to.
Thirdly, the set of clothes she was wearing was physical evidence of Sophia’s support.
In the past, she was bullied because Evan was intentionally making her life difficult like the petty man he was. Now, it seemed like things were starting to turn in her favor. As the saying goes, evil will never prevail.
In other words, Nicole thought, I’m not afraid of you, Evan Seet.
